Tony Gregg limped in from the small blind and Maksim Pisarenko checked from the big blind to see the J♦10♠6♥ flop. Both players checked and Gregg then bet the K♠ turn for 1,800,000, Pisarenko called. The 10♥ river was checked and Gregg showed his J♠10♦ for a full house to win the small pot.
Sergio Veloso opened to 2,000,000 in the hijack and Michael Mizrachi three-bet to 4,900,000 in the cutoff. Jarod Minghini then four-bet jammed for 6,000,000 in the big blind. Veloso folded and Mizrachi called.
Jarod Minghini: A♣Q♥ 
Michael Mizrachi: A♠8♦
Mizrachi had been caught with his hand in the cookie jar and the board ran 6♣Q♠3♣7♦3♠ to earn Minghini a double with a pair of queens.
Braxton Dunaway made it 2,000,000 to go from under the gun holding Q♥J♥ and Tony Gregg flat-called in the cutoff with A♠10♠. Dunaway hit a flush on the A♥4♥2♥ flop and continued for 1,200,000. Gregg then raised to 3,200,000 and Dunaway called.
The turn was the 3♠ and Dunaway led out again, this time for 4,700,000. Gregg folded his pair of aces and Dunaway took the pot.
Lautaro Guerra raised to 2,000,000 in middle position and Daehyung Lee pushed all in for 18,500,000 on his left. The action folded back to Guerra who quickly slid out some chips to call.
Daehyung Lee: 10♠10♥
Lautaro Guerra: Q♣Q♦
Lee was in dire straits with the inferior pocket pair and the flop of 9♥8♣3♥ provided no immediate help. The 6♠ on the turn added some outs with a straight draw and the 7♦ peeled off on the river to improve Lee to a straight. Guerra was forced to cough up half of his stack after taking a brutal beat.
Kenny Hallaert opened to 2,200,000 on the button with A♣10♠ and Sergio Veloso and Michael Mizrachi came along from the blinds.
Veloso checked on the flop of J♥K♦3♥ and Mizrachi led out for 2,000,000. Hallaert called and Veloso also called.
Veloso checked again on the 4♥ turn and Mizrachi bet 4,000,000. Hallaert folded and Veloso called. Veloso checked once more on the 8♣ river and Mizrachi checked back before showing J♠3♠ for two pair. Veloso mucked K♥10♣.
Lautaro Guerra opened to 2,000,000 from under the gun with A♠Q♦ and was called by Joey Padron with J♠10♠ and Adam Hendrix with 3♠3♥ in the blinds. The flop came K♣10♣3♣ and the action checked around to the 2♠ on the turn.
Padron checked again and Hendrix put together a bet of 3,300,000 with his set of threes. Guerra quickly folded but Padron stuck around for the K♠ on the river. Padron checked for the third time and Hendrix slid out a bet of 11,500,000. Padron put aside the chips to call and eventually slid them into the middle. Hendrix tabled his full house and dragged in a healthy pot.
The action folded around to Adam Hendrix in the small blind who announced all in. Lautaro Guerra was in the big blind with 10,500,000 and stuck in the last of his chips.
Lautaro Guerra: Q♦J♣
Adam Hendrix: J♠7♦
Guerra was in a dominating position heading to a flop of 8♣8♦5♥ which left it that way. The 5♠ on the turn provided some chop outs but it was the 10♦ on the river that gave Guerra a double up.
Luka Bojovic opened to 2,000,000 in middle position with K♥10♥ and was called by Joey Padron in the hijack with K♠J♠ and Joseph Ozimok in the big blind with A♥9♥.
The flop came 9♣6♥2♦ and the action checked to Padron who threw in a bet of 1,500,000. Ozimok check-raised to 4,800,000 which prompted a snap-fold from Bojovic. Padron also sent his cards into the muck and Ozimok collected the last pot before dinner break.
